Question

Given that slotted ALOHA contains three active stations: X, Y, Z. The probability of generating frames by these stations in a time slot is given as 0.1 for each station. What is the throughput of each station and what is the throughput of the network?

Answer 1

Throughput of X, Y, Z will be 0.081

The network throughput will be 0.243

Step-by-step explanation:

Throughput of X will be Tx = Px*(1-Py)*(1-Pz)=0.1*0.9*0.9=0.081

Throughput for Y and Z can be calculated in same way.

Throughput of network = Tx+Ty+Tz=0.081+0.081+0.081=0.243
